None. You listed Russia twice.

Conventional war is over in the First World.

..and WWI was the war to end all wars.

Two first world powers lining up is very unlikely at this point, but we could certainly see a Korean War like engagements in the future.  For example, a fight between China and a non-western power.  They ain't building carriers to project power to the Spratly Islands.

Conventional war isn't ended. But no superpower will in the foreseeable future bring its full military weight to bear anywhere.
